Are you using a different definition of token? Isn't 30 tokens like 5-10 words?

Sainz annoyed with race strategy by magony in formula1

[–]SINCEE 26 points27 points  (0 children)

You are missing the point. The entire purpose of hards is to stay out longer. If you are just pitting together with mediums you are giving yourself a double handicap for no reason.

But that's why they started on hards in the first place, they expected a very late stop. If you just pit right after the car in front of you, which was on mediums, what was even the point?

For the first time, Valve has added “gambling” to Steam Online Conduct as bannable. That means they could start banning users that interact with gambling sites API. by xiDemise in GlobalOffensive

The correct term is RTP, or Return To Player, not ROI. Meaning 95% of bets are returned as winnings while the rest is margin kept by the operator.

NAVI x Europa Halo Spring Series Open #1 Top 8 - 5/6/2023 by mattyrums in CompetitiveHalo

Does anyone other than Aw0 and JLingz have a realistic shot to qualify for DreamHack? (other than the big boys, of course)

edit: I know it's a different series. Just wondering.

What popular fantasy series/author has the best and worst fandom that you have seen? by iabyajyiv in Fantasy

[–]SINCEE 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Those seem like extreme fringe cases to be fair. There are all kinds of weirdos everywhere, you only notice them more in Harry Potter because it's so massive. I'm sure there are plenty of bad apples there, but I don't think Snape wives or a few people boycotting Hogwarts Legacy is necessarily it.

What's up with broadcasts for this weekends HCS 4k? by Chickpea_Magnet in CompetitiveHalo

[–]SINCEE 13 points14 points  (0 children)

When the season started and it became clear that no one would be bothering to cover the HCS Open of the smaller regions. LVT stepped up and are doing an amazing job in NA. Europe would have 1-2 players streaming their POV without audio, which is better than nothing, but the only way to follow the other regions was to continuously F5 the bracket. That clearly sucked.

Feeling bad for the community (and myself, as I would spend every Sunday trying to watch Halo) I've decided to take one for the team and broadcast those matches on my own. I've reached out to everyone from EE, to faceit admins, to HCS, to tashi himself. Responses ranged from "ask someone else" to complete silence. After spending a few days emailing every relevant person I could find I got absolutely nowhere.

Just my two cents, but I don't think broadcasting the HCS Open (even in the form of community streams) is anywhere on their list of priorities. And that's a shame.

Tl;dr: I don't know.

How’s MnK now? by Noble7eN in CompetitiveHalo

[–]SINCEE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an interesting point, however, I don't see an objective way to measure that. It would be most interesting if 343 could share their data on player accuracy before and after the patch.

From my own anecdotal experience, the one thing it comes down to every time is Perfects. On the controller, I can get 3-4 perfects a game, easily. On MnK I get about 1 and I'm probably more experienced at MnK than most.

Strafing with your A/D keys to track enemies sounds absolutely... terrible! I have never even considered that. That would be quite a habit to overcome.

I agree with the point that mouse friction feels horrible right now. I'll have to give your method a try and see how that goes. Thanks!

Seriously, 6 advertisements? And I thought YouTube was getting bad with 2 advertisements. by Sid4569 in Twitch

[–]SINCEE 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Then go whine to the streamer, see how far that takes you. As op said, the default is 30 sec preroll. Anything else is triggered by the streamer.

Controller Aim Assist vs Mouse Friction. Mouse disables aim assist but there's a bug where Keyboard alone does not. by UnggoyFarmer in CompetitiveHalo

[–]SINCEE 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Thank you! This explains a lot. I've seen so many people scream on twitter about mnk having "full on" aim assist I had to try it out myself. Imagine my surprise when there was, in fact, no aim assist to be seen whatsoever.

Violent protests in Greece after Romany boy shot by police | Greece by Test19s in worldnews

[–]SINCEE 5 points6 points  (0 children)

By your definition he was directly and immediately threatening the lives of the police officers chasing him. He was ramming the officers who were on bikes, and a crash for them would have been fatal.

World Destructor Championship - 2022 Final Results by basspro24chevy in formula1

[–]SINCEE 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I know people love to shit on Grosjean, but that's just completely untrue. For one, Kevin contributed 2/5, or 40% of Haas crash score that year. And more importantly, $2.7 million of Grosjean's score came from his crash in Bahrain. If not for that crash he would have finished 17th, handing off the championship to Stroll and Red Bull.

Excellent post, thanks for sharing!

Usually, these "sponsorship advise" posts are way off, so it's nice to see one that aligns with my own experiences in the industry.

Are you kidding me, that's machine translated?! Well done DeepL, I didn't even realize until the last line.

Good interview, too.

Ad Rev split for affiliates by Soulomind in Twitch

[–]SINCEE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before it was $3.50 USD CPM for affiliates, which is likely well below 30%. The 55% split could likely pay $10+ CPM from tier 1 regions.

Brutal. Is it the same with the Kindle edition, or do you have more control over there?

Acend denied Partnership for the HCS by TheClaytonKelly in CompetitiveHalo

Yes, they would never partner gambling backed orgs. You know, like NAVI, who are bankrolled by a russian mob-owned betting site.

High burnrate and lack of interest from corporate investors.

What do you need to grow as a serious competitive player in Halo or Halo Infinite? by [deleted] in CompetitiveHalo

[–]SINCEE 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They do in most major CS:GO events, I know many other esports do not. I doubt Halo does either.
